If I was bouncing off the walls waiting to get my shiny new car then i'd personally not wait.
Part ex prices can cloud the issue too if you don't have a locked in figure. Book prices will drop on older cars each month so the difference could be offset by what you get in part ex if the figure is flexible.
Do you want a current plate for 1 month or six? PCP handbacks will have a fixed price at the end whether it's a 67 or an 18 so depends on whether you'll have much, if any equity in the car.
There are so many variables.
Once your car is an older generation than what's currently on sale the value will ebb away no matter what the plate, until it gets old enough to bottom out and just goes purely on condition.
